No Donkey Kong Bananza this week. Took a break to catch up with some other stuff.

Finished all single player content of Ghost of Tsushima, including the main campaign, all the side activities, the DLC (Iki Island) and all of it's side activities. Also got all the trophies! It has been a while since I went for a platinum, it was fun!

Didn't play the Multiplayer part of the game (Legends) much. Just did a single level, and while it might have been fun if I had a few friends to play with, alone it was just okay.

There are some easter egg Armour Skins on Iki island, for different Sony franchises, that was an interesting surprise.

Looking forward to Ghost of Yotei now, though, it will probably be a few years before I get to it.

Finished AI: The Somnium Files ! Except it wasn't the end, it was a end.

Also, couldn't see the end cause it asked me to go back and play different route before I can view that. So, playing the second route now. Interesting to see how things would have turned out if things had been different.

I think there are 4 different routes. Haven't looked at it in detail though.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

Finished Guacamelee! 2!

Didn't enjoy this one as much as the predecessor, mainly due to final 1/3 or so the game. It felt like the developers decided the game needed to be harder but didn't really know what to do, so they just amped up one of the worst parts of the previous game - insta-kills by touching spikes or lava.

Seriously, I think 90% of my deaths were due to this and it gets really frustrating, to the point that I decided to skip optional content and just rush to the final boss to get it done.

It's a shame because the rest of the game was solid, I liked how they made better use of the "chicken" form and also how the maps were better designed and with far less backtracking.

Playing Witch on the Holy Night!

Slow progress this week, finished Chapter 1.5 ("Seven Days of Spinning"), which is optional but a very interesting read. The segment that focuses on Alice hunting monsters was particularly awesome, being the first "break" from slice-of-life into supernatural and leaving a strong impression.

Now reading Chapter 2 ("Little Happening of Last Night").

Playing CrossCode!

Current side-game, an indie action RPG I bought at a sale a while back. Only played 2h or so but the first impression is really good, mixing puzzle sections that remind me of older games like Wild Arms with fast-paced combat.

CrossCode is on my wishlist, heard great things about it. I think they have released their next game too.

Looks like there's a PC demo but the game is not out yet. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3110760/Alabaster_Dawn/
